in the obama administration, they were trying to demonstrate that civilian tools are adequate, they're tough enough to make everybody safe. so in that process, the public safety exception seems to be evolving for terrorism purposes. for example, just to sort of track, we remember the so-called christmas day bomber who was briefly interrogated under the public safety exception but then very quickly given his miranda rights. that got a firestorm of criticism as basically not being tough enough on terrorists. so the next high-profile event was the times square bomber. he was interrogated for hours before given his miranda warnings because you can ask somebody what is a reasonably objective standard to show imminent or immediate danger to the public or police, you can ask somebody those kind of questions. what are you asking about immediate danger and is there a reasonably objective belief that there is imminent danger and when you basically trying to elicit a confession. that's where it gets kind of gray. in this case, there's a very high-profile announcement that miranda isn't going to h
